Lyrics Everything But the Girl

Everything But the Girl

Downhill Racer

From the top you can see so far into the distance

Look, it's downhill all the way from here

And getting there is quicker, let go and you just slide

Shouldn't take more then a year

I could almost like you

Now it's nearly over

Now you've shown some weakness

Now you're looking older

I heard what you said and I recognize those feelings

I know how hard it is to watch you go

And all the effort that it took to get here in the first place

And all the effort not to let the effort show

And I could almost like you

Now you're falling over

Now you're feeling hopeless

Now you're looking over your shoulder

If you can ride the backlash there's still time for a comeback

You don't have to lie down and die

But Lazarus he only did it the one time

He couldn't face another try

And I could almost like you

Now it's really over

Now you've shown some weakness

Now you're looking over your shoulder

Who's gonna come and find you?

Who's gonna come and find you?
